Chapter 104: Yang County is in danger
And King Jing, he didn't suspect Midnight, because in his cognition, it was impossible for anyone to dare to spread this kind of panic in front of a prince!
But not to mention the prince, even him, now feels sour in his heart. The father really loves the nineteenth brother to the point where he is better than these real princes.
He and the nineteenth brother went to Quyang one after the other, well, the nineteenth brother did not just go to Quyang, he was the entire southeast patrol envoy, and the right could go directly to the southeast pass, and then he would be the queen's own brother, and he had to see the face of the nineteenth brother.
But no matter what, he is also his own son!
It's just that his father didn't have the same trust as the nineteenth brother, but when he left Beijing, his father didn't even have a word of explanation. Not to mention the confession, maybe when he left Beijing, his father will have to wait until Jinyiwei reports to know.
Think about it, while souring midnight, he also has a chill for the emperor.
Heavenly father and son, say that the mother is more expensive than the son, and the son is more expensive than the mother. The mother concubine is not as favored as the imperial concubine, and the mother concubine's mother family is not as powerful as the queen's mother's family, he didn't feel anything before, and even felt that it was good to live a peaceful life away from the power struggle.
But now, he suddenly has the idea that he also wants to earn and grab, not to have the dragon chair, but at least - Yu Gong, he has the right to speak. In private, when the crisis comes, he can keep the people he wants to protect.
Yang Yingyu's whole mind was confused, in the final analysis, she was still a backyard boudoir woman after all, and it was only because she took care of her father's backyard alone, and then there was this disaster relief incident, and she would be more courageous than normal boudoir women.
But how can she be the opponent of a prince, let alone a prince like Midnight who will invisibly exude a powerful aura!
"This king knows that the disaster money is embezzled, and the purpose of this king this time is to find out about this matter. If Yang County's order has merit in this matter, his fault, the king will personally enshrine the emperor and ask for merit for him. β
Yang Yingyu seemed to have just reacted, and immediately kowtowed to midnight, "Don't ask for credit, Lord Xian, please, courtier, please save my father." β
Save?
Even King Jing heard the other meaning, and immediately asked, "But someone threatens Yang County Order?" β
Yang Yingyu nodded heavily with tears.
In fact, she didn't know much, after the flood flooded a lot of farmland, and also after the embankment collapsed, Quyang sent officials, saying that it was to count the damage in various places, when the sky was still pouring rain, and it was my father who took those people to the surrounding villages to inspect.
But my father came back on his own, and after he came back, he locked himself in the study all day, and when his father came out of the study, Uncle Wei, who had been protecting him, was gone.
From that day on, my father not only gathered all the people around the county government and ordered her to take out the food and other food that they had stored in the ya, but also together with a great good man in the city, all the food and consumption in the county and the city were distributed in a unified manner.
It's the same with manpower, there is a feeling of being self-reliant and waiting for rescue.
Indeed, they can only rely on themselves, and when they have eaten all the food, they go to the surrounding mountains to pick what they can eat, bitter herbs and wild fruits, as long as they can eat all of them.
No matter how stupid she is, she also understands that her father, who has always been honest, must not agree to some people's requests and has been given up by Qu Yang.
In addition, many people who passed by here complained that other places in Quyang, that is, Luqiao County next door, have already received disaster relief silver and grain from the imperial court, which can better show that Zhounan County, which is managed by my father or father, has been abandoned by Quyang.
In the afternoon, she knew that the people who came were two princes, and she had the idea of asking for an explanation for Zhounan County, but first, she was afraid that these two people were not real princes, and secondly, she was afraid that these two princes were not the people who loved the people.
But after a day of observation, the arrival of the royal doctors and the common people behind her, and the follower of the Regent's guards, she had determined that these two were the true members of the Heavenly Family.
And judging from the attitudes of the two princes, they are all people who love the people.
However, she changed her mind about the explanation.
Zhounan County is hot, and it is impossible for the emperor and the prince to give up Zhounan County. With a father's temperament, he will only offend more and more people step by step in the officialdom, so it is better to take this opportunity to keep his father away from officialdom, and she accompanies his father to find a quiet place for his father to live in his old age.
It's just that she couldn't stop the two princes from seeing her father's exploits for the people, so she thought of telling the two princes about her father's mistakes, which was also the most guilty part of her father. She wanted her father to be able to offset his merits and leave the officialdom lightly.
Midnight personally stretched out his hand to help her up through her clothes, "There are many officials in Yanxi, but there may not be a few officials like Yang County. This king thinks that if this king is placed in the same position as Yang County's order, this king may not do better than him.
As the daughter of Yang County Order, you have this filial piety, which is really the blessing of Yang County Order! β
"Fifth brother, this king still has something to do, you take care of Miss Yang." When the words fell, midnight had already left the room, and there was not even a shadow to be seen.
King Jing, who was left behind, couldn't help but chase after two steps, but had to stop and face Yang Yingyu alone, who was already in a daze.
The nineteenth brother left in such a hurry, he roughly guessed the reason.
Their arrival was not secretive, although they hurried and took the trail, they could get the news from the capital to Quyang, not much slower than them, if Yang Xianling was really a person who knew about the disaster money, or even a person who was coerced.
It was known to those who were interested that the two of them had arrived in Zhounan County, and the safety of the Yang County Order was in dangerγγγγγγ
&
Several fast horses galloped in the direction of Sanlitun, and the white shadow led by him threw away the people behind him far away.
It is not very far from Zhounan County to Sanlitun, and it takes about two hours to ride a horse, but it is already one of the farthest villages to which Zhouzhen County belongs.
Along the way, you can see the signs of flooding, and there are many smaller trees that have been cut off by the floods, but they should have been cleared, and at least there was no obstruction on the dirt road that led to the villages, and there were no branches and stones.
About an hour or so on the horse, there was a faint sound of swords colliding in the woods not far from the road, and a faint smell of blood wafted in.
Midnight immediately reined in the horse, turned around and ran in the direction where the voice came from, pulled the reins of the horse with his left hand, and pulled out the white jade Xiao on his waist with his right hand.
The forest is very dense, and there are broken branches and other obstacles in the intersection, and the forest is intertwined with broken branches, so it is impossible to ride into the forest.
Gently pressing the white shadow's head rose with the help of force, and lightly passed over the broken branches, and the midnight was like a white shadow flying in the forest, quickly moving towards the place where the sound became more and more obvious.
Behind the shadow, the night and the others also abandoned their horses, closely following the back of Midnight.
